“…The prevalence of dental caries can be assessed using decayed-missing-filling (dmft) or DMFT. DMFT/dmft index was the easiest, simplest, reliable, valid, commonly used for oral health assessment [19]. This study hypothesized high dental caries prevalence in CLWPHA increased due to low CD4 + counts.…”

Objective: To investigate the correlation Cluster of Differentiation 4 + (CD4 +) counts with a high prevalence of dental caries in Children Living with Perinatal Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (CLWPHA). Material and Methods: An analytical observational research with a cross-sectional design was conducted at Tertiary General Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Randomized total sampling consisted of 29 CLWPHA 1-12 years old at outpatient ward Infectious Disease Intermediate Unit (UPIPI) Tertiary General Hospital Doctor Soetomo Surabaya. Demographic details and recent CD4 + counts obtained from medical records. Decayed, missing, filled teeth (dmft) in primary teeth and DMFT in permanent teeth index were used. Pearson's and Spearman's Correlation test (p<0.05) were performed. Results: Dental caries prevalence was 86.2%; meanwhile, the dmft/DMFT index score found were high (8.2 / 6.3). CD4 + count and caries showed significant correlation (r=-0.394, p<0.05). Tooth brushing frequency with caries showed a significant correlation (r=-0.419, p<0.05). Antiretroviral (ARV) therapy and caries showed an insignificant negative correlation (p<0.05). Conclusion: The high prevalence of dental caries in CLWPHA correlated with low CD4 + counts.

“…Unlike the DMFT index, the PUFA index may be used to track the progression of untreated caries lesions, which can lead to better outcomes. However, the PUFA index, like the ICDAS, has a weakness in that it focuses on cavitated caries without considering less severe cases [ 6 ].…”

Introduction: Caries in their early stages cannot be properly classified using the decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index because it does not record precavitated lesions. Thus, the caries assessment spectrum and treatment (CAST) index is a good alternative as it is equipped to record the whole range of dental illnesses and count restored teeth as healthy ones.Materials and methods: The participants in this cross-sectional study included 300 children who were sevento-eight years of age. We used the CAST index to assess the extent of caries in the deciduous and permanent molars of these children. For this, all the permanent and baby teeth, the primary and secondary permanent molars, as well as the first and second deciduous molars were examined to determine the prevalence of each carious stage. The correlation of the distribution of the CAST codes between the first and second molars, the second and first molars, the right and left sides of the dental bend, and the opposing jaws was analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, while the cut-off for statistical significance was a p-value of 0.05. The quantitative analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS Experiences Version 20 for Windows.Results: By comparing CAST codes in the right and left molars, we were able to observe how the development of caries in paired teeth might affect one another. The rank correlation value was found to be less than 0.5 only in the primary second molars (55/65 and 85/75), which were found exclusively in the deciduous first molars. Moreover, the r values for the neighboring deciduous and permanent molars were found to be below 0.3, i.e., 65/64 (0.497), 74/75 (0.327), and 84/85 (0.411), which indicated a weak connection between them. When comparing the teeth in different jaws, we found reasonable correlations (r = 0.33-0.49), with only 64/74 outliers (0.501).Conclusions: We found that, in the examined population, there was a well-established correlation between the stages of caries development in the deciduous molars on the left side of the mouth.

“…A condição de saúde bucal pode ser diagnosticada clinicamente pelo CPOD, aceito internacionalmente como indicador objetivo do perfil da saúde bucal e indica a prevalência de cárie dental no indivíduo (ou em uma determinada população estudada) a partir da quantidade de dentes cariados (C), perdidos (P) e obturados (O) (DOIFODE et al, 2018).…”
